  Hello! How can I get the Archives to display full posts (including photos and text) instead of just the first few sentences?

  I’m using the Adventure Journal theme and can change css in custom design, but haven’t figured how yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

  Sample archive page with just a few sentences:

  Sample archive page with full posts:

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  We cannot edit templates and themes and change the way any theme is coded to function. In the majority of themes, posts on category or other archive pages show up just as they do on the main posts page. But in some themes only the beginnings of posts are shown, and in a few themes you only get titles or thumbnails. See here to locate a theme that fuctions the way you want Category/archive pages: full posts or not

  You’re welcome. Will you be kind enough to enter the top of this thread and mark it “resolved” please?

  Hi there! Actually – I found a solution in one of the links that you sent. All I needed to do is turn on the Excerpt function and copy and paste the html code into it. Thanks for sending me on the path!
